Question

Find the length of each hypothesis to the nearest tenth...

Triangle with coordinates (-4, 0), (-4, 5), and (0, 5)

Answer 1

I think you mean hypotenuse instead of hypothesis? Or am I misunderstanding the question? Anyway there is only one hypotenuse and you can find it using the distance formula.
So to find the length of the hypotenuse, plug in the coordinates of the two points into the distance formula:\[Distance=\sqrt{(x _{2}-x _{1})^{2}+(y _{2}-y _{1})^{2}}\] By the way, it doesn't matter which of the two points you select to be the first or the second since the terms are squared.
